Kurt Angle Reportedly Not Returning to WWE

As noted, Kurt Angle appeared on Mark Madden’s radio show earlier this week and said his WWE return is a matter of “when” not “if.” This fueled speculation that Angle might be headed to WWE in time for the upcoming brand split.

However, Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com is reporting WWE officials have confirmed Angle is not returning to WWE, despite Angle claiming he had recent talks with Triple H.

Kurt Angle, 47, last competed in WWE in 2006, and finished up his TNA contract in March. He has been working select indy dates with recent matches against the likes of Rey Mysterio Jr. and Zack Sabre Jr.
